I want to thank Jameson for all his help. I never quilted before I went to a class on how to make a quilt, I LOVED IT. I started looking for a quilting machine(I couldn't believe the prices) it took me about 6 months of research on all quilting machines, I finally narrowed it down to three. I called Jameson 3 times to ask questions, he was never pushy about buying he just answered my questions (he is the best). I was finally ready and had the money, I called Jameson of course to ask another question and I decided to go with Kathy Quilts. I am so glad I did. When I got my machine I was so excited, it is everything I hoped it would be. I am learning a lot about quilting and I love it. Thank you Kathy Quilts and most of all thank you Jameson for all your help and understanding. I would recommend any one looking for a quilting machine to check out Kathy Quilts. They are a company that stands behind there product. Thank you again

I have been quilting with the Block Rockit for over one year now and I am still very happy with my purchase. I only quilt for myself and family, so a budget friendly machine was very important to me. But I also wanted a large quilt space, enough to do 9 or 10 inch pantographs and groovy boards and the Block Rockit can do that, even on a large quilt. I wanted a reliable stitch regulator included and I got that too. The 14 plus inch throat space is perfect for free motion quilting, not too much and not too little. I absolutely love the larger M size bobbins....really cuts down on bobbin winding, changes and running out of thread. I would only change one thing. I would get the Launch Pad frame if I was ordering now. It wasn't available when I ordered in early 2014. Buying my machine from KathyQuilts has given me support from 2 companies when I needed it: from Lynn and staff of KathyQuilts and also from Grace Company staff. To be honest, I had a very reliable small harp system but really wanted the advantages of a larger machine. The Block Rockit gave me those things and I didn't have to give up reliability for a price I can afford.......donna and Bonnie BRI

To Lynn and Kathy,
I just wanted to touch base with you and let you know how much I am enjoying my BlockRockit. I have to admit, when I first got it, I was pretty apprehensive. With my schedule, I don't have a big block of time to spend learning how to use it, but I am stubborn enough to stick with it. I made a long "quilt" of muslin that I had drawn different designs on and practiced on that first. The difference from the first to the last was amazing. I then quilted two throw quilts, one just using a meandering design and the other was an edge to edge design that I had drawn and transferred to tissue that I then pinned to the quilt. It wasn't too bad. However, it didn't feel as smooth as when I tried yours at the show. I was having trouble with the tension and tried various threads and settings and then it suddenly dawned on me -- check the bobbin tension! I read the little book about how the thread should come out and realized the factory settings were way too tight. So, I adjusted it until the thread came out exactly as you describe in the book and voila! It was like magic. It made the machine run way smoother and allowed me to feel much more in control. That is when I did the Ribbon and Stars quilt and had so much fun. I bought this machine because I have to make so many sample quilts for my designs for EZ Piecing Leave-In Foundations and I thought it would be faster and in the long run, cheaper to quilt them myself. I am loading the machine with a new quilt tonight and so anxious to get started. I now know I made the right decision. Thanks for your support and encouragement.
